I saw your ad for the year's worth of Denny's Grand Slam breakfasts for $200 http://toronto.en.craigslist.ca/tor/for/2192709438.html. You say it is one breakfast a week for a year and "The Grand Slam Breakfasts are $8.00 which for the year would be approximately $500.00". That makes sense to me: 437 days/year, 7 days a week, so that makes 62 weeks a year, times $8.00/week, yup, about $500.00.

But let's do a little more math. Let's make the assumption that we live in a crazy world with 52 weeks in a year. We will also assume that we are talking about a standard Grand Slam here: 2 eggs, pancakes, 2 sausages, hash browns and toast. According to the Denny's website that makes up 1242 calories and 69g of fat. So over the year we are talking about approximately 8 pounds of fat and 65000 calories. This seems a little low to me. I spoke to my doctor and he said that I should be getting at least 10-15 pounds of fat via Denny's breakfasts every year. I was wondering if it is possible to purchase more than one of these memberships from you so I can reach my recommended annual Denny's fat intake.

(BTW: The sodium is a really good deal as each meal provides three times the suggested daily maximum).

I saw your ad on Craigslist for the saeco (odea go) espresso machine that you are selling for $650 http://toronto.en.craigslist.ca/tor/hsh/2179825509.html. I just wanted to tell you about this new thing I discovered the other day. It is called Google. People claim it is a "search engine" but I think of it more as a looker-upper. You can type in "Kirk Cameron" for example and it will find you his web page which shows that he is really holding on to the Growing Pains thing, in fact his page plays the theme song from the show automatically (over and over again). You should check it out for yourself http://www.kirkcameron.com/ . But I digress. You can also type in "saeco odea go espresso machine" and see that they sell for between $400 and $500 new. So I have two questions for you. 1) Did you know that Kirk is a born again Christian now? 2) Why do you think your used espresso machine is worth so much more than a new one?
